Pale-headed Rosella

Location: Carnarvon Gorge, Central Qld


These were a delight to see

Birds in Backyards fact sheet on the Pale-headed Rosella is here


not quite as flamboyant as their cousins in N.S.W.  A pair of  Eastern Rosellas, at home.

  7. We have them too, but as you probably know, they are very shy and often heard before you actually see them.
    I think they are more beautiful than their red cousins :)

thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
